Pray Away examines the controversial practice of gay conversion therapy, which religious activists openly championed in the U.S. until recently. Survivors and practitioners of conversion therapy provide harrowing accounts of how genuinely good intentions led to decades of turmoil for countless families.
The film rightfully denounces the so-called "therapy" but doesn't condemn anyone. All subjects are approached with empathy and an emphasis on healing. Pray Away is not necessarily a pleasurable watch, but it is necessary viewing for anyone interested in the topic.
